As well as catering for the new-fangled Retina™ display, this site is compliant with current HTML5 and CSS3 web standards, and is also fully responsive (which is sure to please them SEO bods over at Google). You are therefore advised to use an up-to-date browser. Ye Olde Oake IE6 and Netscape 4.78 just will not cut it anymore. That said, even IE11 may also bring shame and tribulation down on your viewing experience. As for Microsoft Edge™, who knows what that will bring.

Your comments are appreciated, nay, important. Come and dip your toe in - while it is still legal, of course. You need simply click that grey speech bubble at the top of each post, and leave your pawprint. Go on, I'll buy you some chocolate. And an elephant.
